Philosophy dropout and self-proclaimed synthesist. Handle with care.

"...For tonight, we dine in Nondescript Generic Foreign Food Place!"

"It's that time of the year again! And This Here Radio will be celebrating romance with you with 24 hours of songs about breaking up painfully!"

"Warning: Using your computer to perform actual computations may void your warranty."

One thing that can be said about bouncing back from catastrophic hardware failure: it gets easier.

I guess, one legitimate reason to switch to IPv6 sooner is "couldn't get IPv4 to work on this machine".

If your position is only defensible through fallacies and manipulation, it might just be that your position is not a very good one, and not particularly worth defending.

If you insist that payment systems must remain functional even if or when civil infrastructure fails, i have only one question to ask you: Why on Earth are you still playing capitalism during an ongoing disaster?...

"You thought that just because thinking sand thinks you can just go ahead and stop being smart and paying attention? Well, sorry to disappoint!"

"You're an even weirder person than me!" — "That's the nicest thing anyone told me in three months!"

"This is a weird dish, but the soy sauce makes it better. Soy sauce makes everything better."

I'll have it written in my permanent record that i'm sick of being sick. Give me my singing voice back! Attack, my leukocyte army! Leave no infiltrator alive!

Walking around a plant nursery and sniffing the herbs is something i can't seem to get tired of. I may be starting to understand cats.

If i had to describe what non-metaphorical, non-metaphysical, real-world karma be like, it would be something like this:

What you DO is what you ARE, and there WILL be consequences.

"I'm just waiting for the pill i took to start working." — "Oh? I see. What year did you take it?"

You eat an emergency ration. You feel emergent.

Kindness and acceptance only last until the first stone is flung.

The only sure way to not offend anyone is to not exist.

I'm waiting for an opportunity to say "I left Twitter long before it was Not Cool Anymore".

"Vote for Our Candidate! Get yourself No Representation, from the Right People!"

Turns out, if you base your personality on your hatred towards a specific person, you will end up with not many friends, and not much personality.
